The Difference Between Light and Shadow (Shame File, 1994) - Once at sunset I was driving eastwards into a great darkness, with the sun’s light setting behind me, and I wondered “How can I leave this light and head into this great unknown?” The contrast of the two are astounding. The key terms with this tape are sparse and minimalistic. Sound drifts in and out, like distant memories you can’t quite place. Or it comes upon you heavily like sleep, occasionally coarse or abrasive. These recordings came from my early use of a 4 track recorder working with solo guitar.

The Celestial Emporium of Benevolent Knowledge (Shame File, 1994) - In a book somewhere I came across an ancient Chinese system which classified all beings into obscure and esoteric categories. Each track represents a category, along with a few of my own categories thrown in. Those that Resemble Flies from a Distance, Those that have just Broken a Flower Vase, Others, Those that Tremble as if they were Mad. We are talking deconstruction of noise here, finishing up with an extended sound/dreamscape. Also from my initial 4-track recorder sessions.

Purple Silk, Yellowed Clothes (Shame File Music, 1999) - A slight change of direction with some tracks weaving between crystal-fine guitar noise/sweetness to more sonic meandering ambientness, with some hurricane like noisescapes to please the masses. Add a deconstructed ‘Sabbath cover and an extremely sparse Sonic Youth cover. I dare you to recognise them. Silk, Grace, and those who Know. - Available on the "Archive Three" CD

"Offering" CD (Shame File, 2003) The concept behind most of the recordings on this full-length CD is the combination of guitar drones of varying tones and textures into a series of canon-based arrangements, exploring the dynamics resulting from the interplay of multiple layers of sound, both through composition and pure chance. This is also the first major Undecisive God release using mostly digital recording methods. - AU$8ppd (US$6ppd)

'A Vinyl Construction' 7" - Recent experiments with multiple turntables and prepared/broken records come to full fruition here with a release that poses questions both to the use of turntables as instruments and vinyl as a format. The music - crunchy multi-layered improvisations/processes that randomly sample small broken chunks from the original vinyl materials - is itself presented on 7" vinyl, in handmade covers reconstructed from old record covers and broken vinyl shards; each cover is different, individually numbered and an interesting one-off creation in itself. Limited edition of fifty copies. - AU$12pps (US$9ppd)
